We left our staircase out of the basement remodeling project last year while we tried to figure out exactly how to approach the repair. All the steps were different heights and the carpet was pretty nasty. So, Jon took part of his week long vacation to rip them out and build a new staircase. Noticing a pattern here? As always, this project took a little longer than the few days we had set aside. It's also not quite finished yet as we need to redo the entire back entrance / mudroom when we upgrade the kitchen (again). But here is how it looks today.
After five years of saving and scheming, we quit our jobs and sold our house in Denver, CO. This is the story of our journey from Maine where we bought Baby Blue, down the US Atlantic Coast (offshore and ICW), through the Eastern Caribbean islands and back again from July 2014 - July 2016. We then returned to shore to build a tiny house, buy land, and have a baby! We're now raising our young son in Western North Carolina and planning our next big adventure.
